The accounts

In the same way as many other state enterprises, the Brønnøysund Register Centre’s operations are funded by annual appropriations from the government budget. Revenues are generated by the level of fees as laid down by Stortinget (Parliament) and are channelled straight
into the national treasury. Thus using the normal business terminology to talk about an operating surplus or deficit does not really work for an agency like the Brønnøysund Register Centre.

Service fees (Note 1)

In 2010, total fees paid amounted to NOK 485 million (2009: NOK 460.2 million).  Half the increase can be ascribed to higher fees, while the rest has to do with an increased case load. Fees related to the sale of information generated revenues of NOK 17.8 million (2009: NOK 16.7 million).

Assignment revenues (Note 2)

Business and industry request services and information that, in principle, are not part of the Brønnøysund Register Centre’s product range. On assignment, the centre organises and presents information according to the customer’s wishes, provided that the customer covers the costs of developing the requested product. In 2010, such assignments generated NOK 18.6 million in revenues. The Brønnøysund Register Centre also get assignment revenues from the development and operation of, among others, the Lottery Register, the Aquaculture Register and the Voluntary Register of Complementary Practitioners. In 2010, revenues from such assignments amounted to NOK 19.5 million.
